Fidel Gives Us Candy: On Visioning in Urban Planning
Teachers would tell the children to close their eyes and ask Jesus for candy. Of course, no candy arrived. Then, they were told to close their eyes and ask Fidel for candy. Fidel's superiority was demonstrated by the candy that arrived at that very moment.
This reminds me of some of the “visioning” processes that occur in urban development and regional planning exercises.
